The Arvada Police Department Evidence Unit preserves and maintains the integrity of approximately 40,000 items of property and vehicles seized by department personnel.

Property and vehicles can be seized when known to be or are implicated in criminal activity. The other way the Evidence Unit receives property or vehicles is when the property has been found or recovered, and then released back to its rightful owner.

The Evidence Unit is a secured area with limited and controlled access. Property or vehicles seized by employees will remain in the custody and control of the Evidence Unit until a disposition through the criminal justice system has been reached and identified owners are established.

Unclaimed property will be destroyed, auctioned or converted to Department use. For more information about police auctions, visit www.rollerauction.com.
